The lectures were instruc- tive, inspiring and entertaining and such a course cannot help but be an uplift to the co:. ,ninety. It would be impossible to put on a series of entertainments that: will delight all classes. One gentleman remarked that to his notion the last entertainment was by far the best. A lady told us that the lecture on Wednesday evening appealed to her the most. Not a few expressed the opinion that Pamahasiki and his pets was one of the finest things they had ever witnessed. While still an- other remarked that the music and lecture of the first day were well worth the price of the season. ticket. The William Shakespeare Quer- tette„ consisting of Mrs. Marjory N. Baldwin, Mr. Russell Clark, Miss Helen Hunt, and Miss Betty For- syth provided the music for the first' entertainment and in the evening gave a short prelude followed by an illustrated lecture by Mr. Carveth Wells on "Six Years in. the Jungle" in which he described very graphi- cally his experiences on the Malay 1 ninsula On the second day the Jordan en- tertainers consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Jordan and their daughter, appear- ed on the prograra at the beginning, of both the afternoon and evening entertaimen,t.

This was a unique entertainment and as enjoyed, not only by the large number of children present, but by everyone, some of the performances of the birds and animals being such that one could not believe it possible they could be so trained. Prof. Pamahasiki said that the training was entirely the re- sult of kindness.
